But, in fairness to them, too, the popular song per se is really a pretty shallow medium to perform in.
Mel Torme

Buzz has reduced my range. Running safely with him means using fewer and shorter routes, with multiple laps per day or multiple returns there per week. Neither of us minds repeating ourselves. This is what runners do.
Joe Henderson
